Mebbe so, but this was not that story. I was looking forward to this movie with great anticipation. The pre-release material was great (though the QT preview was very low-quality), and the small bits of story they leaked were intriguing. Implementation was, IMO, horrible. I am pretty easy to please when it comes to sci-fi; I can appreciate the good, and find humor in the bad (I'm a fan of old, 'B' sci-fi flicks). The only thing I found to like in this movie was the occasional beautifully rendered 3D background. I was embarrassed for the animators whenever Garafalo's character was on-screen. My 4-year-old nephew draws better than that. The rest of the supporting characters were little better, and the principal characters were only believable if you ignored the fact that their voices didn't line up any better than the English overdub of old Godizilla movies. This sounds harsh, but Anastasia, done by the same people, was much better, arguably better than many recent Disney animated features. The final product of Titan just didn't look like a feature-quality movie - more like something you'd see on Atom Mr. Sharumpe OT: did you see that they're doing another Highlander flop... er, movie? The original was great, they should've left it at that, IMO. This new one looks like it will be similar to (and about as good as) ST:Generations.
